Advanced Training: Why We "Superset" with Mobility (Part I)
http://advancedtrainingsi.blogspot.com/2014/03/why-we-superset-with-mobility-part-i.html
Take It To the Next Level. Why We "Superset" with Mobility (Part I). Talk to any meat head in America and they will brag about how they "Superset"* nose breakers with tricep extensions. While Advanced Training has its fair share of aspiring meat heads, we seldom perform supersets like your typical body builder, juicebag, (fill in the blank of any other name you would call a guy bigger than you at the gym .). In our humble world, we "superset" almost all of our movements with mobility or prehab drills.

Advanced Training: Big _____, Big Bench
http://advancedtrainingsi.blogspot.com/2015/04/big-big-bench.html
Take It To the Next Level. Big , Big Bench. It started out with a simple phrase . Big Back, Big Bench". I would say this over and over again as we performed any type of rowing movement - seated rows, chest supported rows, ring inverted rows, db bent over rows, and any other exercise that ended in "rows". At the time, not many people knew or cared to know about the benefits of rowing. They wanted to bench, bench, and bench some more. I also noticed that guys who lost weight also lost gains on their bench.

Take It To the Next Level. When Should I Stretch? If you know anything about me, you know that I absolutely hate when athletes perform a static stretch before a game or a training session. I specifically call this out in a previous post titled, "Your Football Coach Is Ruining Your Career". It is not that I hate static stretching. I just think that most people are doing it at the wrong time. When is the right time? Step 1: Preparation / Recovery. When: Before Your Training Session. Step 3: Muscle Activati...

Advanced Training: Bags Won't Make Ya Dance
http://advancedtrainingsi.blogspot.com/2015/05/bags-wont-make-ya-dance.html
Take It To the Next Level. Bags Won't Make Ya Dance. Warning . the video you are about to see may not be suitable for defensive players and / or Giants fans. The content includes missed tackles, poor pursuit angles, and the Eagles closing out a game with a long run. Viewer discretion is advised. As both a Giants fan and a defensive coach for football, it pains me to look at that video. But it had to be done. They do this by making them run over "agility" bags. Don't pretend like you don't know the drills .

Advanced Training: How to Maintain Your Size During Football Season
http://advancedtrainingsi.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-maintain-your-size-during.html
Take It To the Next Level. How to Maintain Your Size During Football Season. At the end of last season, you made a commitment to yourself to gain 15lbs of muscle. You came up short on a few plays, and you knew it was because you just weren't strong enough to get it done.
